Everything from staff to Dr. Stone were excellent on every level! The huge improvement would have been if I was able to get in to see him sooner. I had to wait 4 monthes for this appontment! Things have gotten progressively worse for the condition I'm dealing with & to have to wait 4 monthes is simply unbelievable & undermines much of the good accomplished there.

Verified Patient

Doctor listened and answered my questions. I hope there will be an after visit summary or notes with some of the discussed information as it can be hard to remember the possible or likely cause of my symptoms. Further imaging was suggested though it's often hard to know the cost of these tests ahead of time.

As a new patient to this practice, I was greeted in a cordial manner by a pleasant gal at the check in desk who prepared me with the necessary forms to sign. Wait time was very short. Nurse who called me from the waiting area, escorted me to the examination room and was very pleasant with conversation, great personality and as we walked it diminished any anxiety I had. Upon completing the intake info she left saying the Dr would be in shortly. The wait time again was minimal, the Dr. arrived, introduced himself, asked questions, performed an exam, and immediately presented to me and my spouse as being a very good listener, very patient and attentive and discussed the necessity for an MRI and the optional solutions for my pain relief. Then, visited a very pleasant gal at check-out. I am extremely filled with gratitude to have Dr. Stone as my medical provider and his phenomenal staff and are confident that I will reach relief for my medical pain.

I was outrageously nervous and Dr Stone was super kind and compassionate. As someone with a lot of medical anomalies, I felt like he actually cared and wasn't just pretend-listening to my issues. He TRULY listened and supported that by responding with answers that made me feel hopeful about my treatment—which is something that has seemed to be hard to find with other providers.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings. Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office. The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
